Scribblenauts artist Edison Yan gives IGN this plus-size wallpaper tribute to ‘Post 217’, which — if you followed the timeline of the game’s eventual domination of this year’s E3 — you might recognize as the specific NeoGAF forum post that opened the floodgates of its viral acclaim. Key sentence from the post: “I FUCKING TRAVELED THROUGH TIME AND JUMPED ON A DINOSAUR AND USED IT TO KILL MOTHERFUCKING ROBOT ZOMBIES.”

Via Offworld columnist Jim Rossignol‘s Twitter stream comes this fantastic piece of amateur modeling – a Japanese garage kit of the legendary third stage boss from R-Type. Visible as a whole, rather than spread across multiple screens-worth of scroll, it’s really quite striking – and there’s even a little R9 fighter for scale.

Infocom’s Steve Meretzky and Douglas Adams on the ‘set’ of their Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy text adventure collaboration (which can be played online here). Scanned from the original slide (and available in even higher resolution) by Jason Scott, who offers the photo as proof that his text-adventure documentary Get Lamp is “alive, and is continuing, and will be finished.”
